It is Autumn in Melbourne, and I am already revelling in the steely grey skies, leaf-strewn pavements and regular showers of rain. During Winter last year, I described the darker months as my personal peak seasons of creativity. Today has been relatively warm, but the skies are big over Carlton and they have, to borrow a phrase from The Orb, "little fluffy clouds". So here is a nod to the darker seasons that are coming upon us: I for one welcome them.

This blog celebrates the culture and practice of writing and reading in cafés. It is written in Melbourne, Australia by itinerant caffeine addicts Marcus and Felix, who can’t put pen to paper without the white noise of lively conversation and hissing espresso machines.

FINALLY It’s getting warm enough for evening dining al fresco
